I still use procmail myself, but I do think about moving away one day.

If you are using Exim, and if your mail arrival route is via your Exim
(you mention fetchmail in follow-up email but I am not sure whether or
not fetchmail will route the fetched mail via the local MTA), then you
could take a look at Exim filters. I've been recommended them a few
times but they can't do everything you can achieve with procmail (and,
I think vice versa)

Otherwise investigate Sieve as others have said.
